Why does one good audit thread turn into a week of unqualified DMs?
Breaking down a real funnel or campaign in public is what builds trust in this space, it's proof you can actually do the work. But it also means every post pulls in a mix of serious prospects and people who just want free advice on their own funnel. Sorting one from the other, by hand, in your DMs, eats the time you'd rather spend on paying engagements.
The cost isn't just time. A founder who's actually ready for a fractional engagement or an audit doesn't want to wait behind ten people asking for a free teardown. If they don't get a clear answer on scope and pricing quickly, they book with the next growth marketer whose DMs moved faster.
